Product Features

• Intuitive ID card printing
  Leading the industry in affordable ID card printing, the AlphaCard PRO 550 ID card printer is ideal for mid-sized businesses. The robust and durable PRO 550 printer easily integrates with your existing networks infrastructure with USB and ethernet connectivity. Fast print speeds and the ability to switch between batch printing and manual feed prints, make this versatile printer an ideal solution to ID card printing. In addition, the user-friendly direct-to-card printer uses dye sublimation to print photo-quality 300 dpi (dots per inch) resolution for photo-like quality images, crisp text, and accurate corporate logos. And, anti-fraud features such as digital shredding and AlphaGuard watermark capability are ideal for companies looking for added security features.
• AlphaGuard watermark technology
  Unique to the AlphaCard PRO printers is an exclusive technology that adds a hologram-like image to the top of your card. This watermarked image requires no additional lamination or lamination ribbons for an affordable option to other ID card printers with similar features. Easily choose between five watermark designs with the PRO 550's interface. For something more individualized for your company, one free custom AlphaGuard grid design is included with each printer and can be redeemed within 30 days of purchase.
• Fast & efficient print speeds
  Don't waste time waiting for your ID cards to print with slow printing printers. With the PRO 550, a single-sided full color YMCKO card prints in 23 seconds. That's 11 seconds faster than the older PRO model printers! If your badges don't require full color, the AlphaCard PRO 550 has the ability to print monochrome cards in only six seconds - an exceptional upgrade from the PRO 500 printer.
• Secure digital shredding
  Designed to add an extra layer of protection to the data of your business, the 550 ID printer includes advanced digital shredding technology. Fragmentation of data after each print job makes data irrecoverable and ensures that the PRO 550 ID card printer is not a repository of data. This feature is ideal for businesses that need to meet certain data security requirements.

  For added ID card security, the PRO 550 badge maker offers magnetic encoding (ISO 7811 compliant) making your ID cards magnetic stripe compatible.
